Each month of this glossy calendar focuses on a different aspect of the school’s recent successes, from academics and research to award-winning performances and films. The headlines and photos reflected a theme of reaching, emerging, connecting, and extending.

HTML e-mail communications

 

First-ever alumni and donors e-newsletter

One had never been created prior to my arrival, so I wrote and designed (using Dreamweaver and Photoshop) this ongoing communication.

 

Arts in the City e-mail invitation

For one of the special student programs I managed, I wrote/designed this e-blast for Chicago Opera Theater’s production of La clemenza di Tito.

The result blurs the line between performance genres, appealing to opera aficionados, musical theatre buffs, and young up-and-comers who just love a great show.
